Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Alternative to cp command Post 303018510 by Peasant on Friday 8th of June 2018 11:38:38 AM

Considering you posted that most files remain unchanged, a rsync will not copy same files based on date or checksum.

This will lower io on the disks and network, but increase cpu usage if checksum is used.

What's a lot of files ?
